Families Matter

The Parent and Family Support Service create the Families Matter magazine. It shares news and information to support local families. It comes out three times a year, in line with the school terms.

The service also publishes a monthly Families Matter e-bulletin to share bitesize information. It gives parents advice and details on how to join our networks, support groups or parenting sessions. 

The most recent editions of both the magazine and the e-bulletin are on this page.

For more details visit the parental support section or email parentalengagement@towerhamlets.gov.uk.
